Channel 4: 30 years in pictures

Come Dine with Me (2005 - )
A simple format for an extraordinarily successful reality TV show, Come Dine With Me sees amateur chefs take turns to cook for and host fellow contestants. Wry narration from comedian Dave Lamb, frequent spats and culinary critiques sent the show skyrocketing, although Channel 4 has come under fire for its decision to air the show 126 times in one month.
